Fuck now ai have to vote for the anti-immigration party… /s
I left. No regrets, just a lot of grief. As a trans immigrant, the US does not and has never represented me.
Fun fact, I still have to pay US taxes but I can’t renew my US passport. What’s that about taxation without representation?
It’s the people you can least afford to lose and hardest to replace who tend to go first.
is it irony that the regime bending over backward for privileged people is most of all driving out privileged people
not really, this guy couldn’t survive in the US
I’ve considered leaving, but I’d need a good work from home job to do it
If there’s ever a way to take a history of everyone that gets grifted by this it will be fascinating and horrifying
No ragrets
On one hand - great news. Fewer workers and potential conscripts for the US empire.
On the other hand - I don’t think anyone wants even a single American more in their own country.
Side note - how on earth are other countries still respecting US driver’s licenses?
I voted against the orange mussolini. But, yeah, I’m the problem bcz I’m American.
Personally I couldn’t care less who you voted for.
But, yeah, I’m the problem bcz I’m American.
Well, yes. No offence to anyone, but vast majority of Americans are a problem wherever they go. Not due to any fault of their own, of course. I’m sure I’d be just as much of a problem if I was born and raised in the US.
However, the fact remains.
You’re saying that as if it’s a given, but I don’t follow your logic. I could see if you were making the case for American tourists, but we’re talking about a completely different group of people.
I’ve traveled internationally plenty, used to do it for work, and I never had a problem wherever I went.
Yes, some Americans are obnoxious, as are some people in every country. You’ve yet to make an actual point.
yes… this guy makes that point as a Russia, he is the problem and is why he left

The losers that leave aren’t welcome back. I don’t give a fuck about your degree or job.
Yeah, just like North Korean detectors aren’t welcome back in North Korea. Bummer.
Hey, you’re disgusting. Fix yourself.

damn, you flamed me good! I’ll never recover from that!
While I certainly understand someone who feels threatened and doesn’t want to become another cautionary tale about misjudging fascists capacity for murder, I’m concerned that the exodus of people who oppose the regime just further solidifies their hold.
It also increases the risk for those left behind who can’t leave.
If you’re leaving because you expect to die if you stay, then godspeed to you. If you’re leaving because you’d rather go someplace where you can pretend it doesn’t affect you, then fuck you.
Someone’s decision to leave is theirs and theirs alone. I fully understand why people who have the means decide to stay, I also know firsthand how difficult it is to leave. Leaving is not an easy choice by any metric, and I’m not going to die in a repurposed Kmart so that the privileged majority can remain comfortable.
The USA made it very clear that they want to kill me. I went to my us rep with a half dozen other trans people and said “we believe the government has genocidal intent towards us”.
He said “yeah I don’t disagree with you”
“Can you make a public statement in support of your trans constituents?”
“No because then someone in Ohio might not vote Democratic”
This was in one of the safest blue districts in the entire country.
I have kids I need to keep alive and to stay alive for.
